; Please find attached screen shots of this Emacs 24.3 vs. Emacs 25.1 bug:
(progn (insert-image (create-image "/* Example at
https://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/X_BitMap */
#define test_width 16
#define test_height 7
static char test_bits[] = { 0x13, 0x00, 0x15, 0x00, 0x93, 0xcd, 0x55,
0xa5, 0x93, 0xc5, 0x00, 0x80,0x00, 0x60 };"
(quote xbm) t))
(insert emacs-version))
; MacOS 10.11.6 Emacs 24.3 displays a proper [Blarg] glyph.
; MacOS 10.11.6 Emacs 25.1 displays a scrambled [alBgra] glyph with the
"a" split in two, i.e., [Blarg] glyph with each octet LSB-MSB reversed.
It seems in XBM image bool-vector data
(A) octets are sometimes little-endian and sometimes big-endian
(B) rows are sometimes padded to octet boundaries and sometimes not
It would be helpful to standardize -- or at least document -- such
per-version per-platform differences
as XBM is the only programmatically accessible graphical element natively
supported in vanilla Emacs!
Peace
--Devon
P.S. Here's an example of the opposite problem:
bash$ curl -L -O http://csail.mit.edu/~devon/emacs/bitmap.el # this
workaround works in 25.1 but is scrambled in 24.3
bash$ Emacs -Q -eval '(setq debug-on-error t)' -l cl -l bitmap.el -f blarg
-eval '(insert emacs-version)' # 24.3
bash$ /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -Q -eval '(setq
debug-on-error t)' -l cl -l bitmap.el -f blarg -eval '(insert
emacs-version)' # 25.1
P.P.S. If you're looking at the XBM image code, the XBM parser should hack
c++ comments.
(insert-image (create-image "// Example at
https://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/X_BitMap
#define test_width 16
#define test_height 7
static char test_bits[] = { 0x13, 0x00, 0x15, 0x00, 0x93, 0xcd, 0x55,
0xa5, 0x93, 0xc5, 0x00, 0x80,0x00, 0x60 };"
(quote xbm) t))
; Emacs 24.3 and 25.1 both display a blank space with the expected display
property but no bitmap.
; Perhaps more annoying feature than bug.

I'm unable to reproduce this bug with Emacs 27 on GNU/Linux -- are you
still seeing this problem? The image code has gotten a lot of work in
the years after you reported this problem...

I can reproduce it on the NS port. I can reverse the way it draws the
pixels, but that then reverses the fringe bitmaps too, so I’m not sure
what the difference is here.

So, on NS we’re using the same mechanism to load XBM files and the
fringe bitmaps, but despite using similar data formats they appear to
have swapped bit orders.
-initFromXBM:width:height:fg:bg: actually handles our fringe bitmaps
and not XBM files. I suppose the right thing to do here is create a
new method for loading fringe bitmaps.
From https://github.com/syntelos/xbm/blob/master/README.txt
Within the XBM pixel block (byte) the order of pixels (bits) is
inverted from raster order. The most significant or left bit is
the right pixel.
But looking at the definitions in fringe.c I can see they’re defined
in reverse. For example:
/* Bar cursor bitmap. A vertical bar; max 13 pixels high. */
/*
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
xx......
*/
static unsigned short vertical_bar_bits[] = {
0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0, 0xc0};

Reinstate some of the functionality removed in commit
67a878f78f879ce534232408c34dd11f42dd802b.
* src/nsimage.m (ns_image_from_XBM): Use new reverseBytes argument.
([EmacsImage initFromXBM:width:height:fg:bg:reverseBytes:]): Add
ability to reverse the contents of each byte for use with XBMs, while
still working with fringe bitmaps.
* src/nsterm.h
([EmacsImage initFromXBM:width:height:fg:bg:reverseBytes:]): Modified
function definition.
* src/nsterm.m (ns_draw_fringe_bitmap): Use new reverseBytes argument.
